The Big Barrighters Fic
I've been working on this one for a couple weeks now, and with help from @bluecrowsfly, @eminence-front, and @suppenzeit, I have turned it into something I'm proud of. This is a Syd/Rick/Roger fic attempting to seriously grapple with Syd's issues as well as depict a different way for Rick and Roger's relationship to develop. I really hope you enjoy it :)
